The Boxing Day has long been a day full of wonderful football matches and today is no exception, as Liverpool FC play against Stoke City. The game is on TV but you can watch a live stream of it, free, by clicking here.

The home team is currently ninth in the league table, with 25 points, with the Reds just one place ahead on goal difference.

A win for either side would be, obviously, a big boost heading towards the new year in a solid top half position.

Stoke is still, surprisingly, undefeated at home this season, with four wins and four draws, while Liverpool have lost only two of their eight away fixtures-this really could be an entertaining game in what is something of a clash of styles.

The Reds will no doubt attack Liverpool's back formation because that's their strength -- and also Liverpool's biggest flaw.
